| My baby girl (age 15 but always my baby) lost one of her guinea pigs on Tuesday. We came home from school and she had died. She was absolutely devastated. This came on the day after the night where I had only slept for 4 hours (still trying to recover from that). We were worried about Georgina, the one that was left, as they are very sociable animals. We now have 3, 8 week old babies. It was going to be 2 but we bought them and there was 1 left so I went back today to get her as I felt sorry for her being left on her own! So all 3 girls have a baby pig to look after | | Report this post to a moderator |

| So sorry to hear about your guinea pig. It's so hard to lose a pet. My 16 year old daughter lost her pet rabbit on Feb. 14 (Valentine's Day). When she came home from school, he was gone. But he lived a good many years and had a good life.
Maybe the new guinea pigs will help take your daughter's mind off her pet for a while. Time heals all wounds. |

| Our baby girl(16) lost her guinea pig a few weeks ago and was also devastated. But, cruelly, we have decided not to get any more as we seemed to be on a cycle of getting more babies then being tied for another three years.
Funnily we all miss him running around and squeaking, they are definitely stress relieving when yu can sit and cuddle them.
Hope she gets over it with having the new ones to look after. |

| We lost one of our guinea pigs, Alice, a few years ago from a stroke, whilst we were in Florida - we felt awful that we weren't with her but our neighbours were looking after them and took good care of her. Then we lost the other one, Mollie,a year later. Like Jocelyn we missed them and their squeaks as we passed the summer house hence we've got two boys guinea pigs now - I find them more messy than the girls! It's great having pets but so upsetting when they go. Not sure about next time...
Hope your daughter gets over her loss and remembers the good home she gave to it. And now she (and you!) have your hands full looking after Georgina and the new ones. |
